What We Provide
The Center can provide neutral assistance to those already in conflict, as well as anticipatory assistance to those who see one coming. Forms of assistance can include research, analysis, access to experts, mediation and other inputs to collaborative problem solving. The Center becomes involved only if all significantly affected parties agree to its presence, providing assurance that the center’s involvement doesn’t signal an imposed solution, but assistance in finding one.
Neutral Conflict Resolution Services
The Center is available to provide a fresh and unbiased assessment of existing or proposed programs. Where appropriate, the Center suggests ways to improve effectiveness, equity, acceptability and impact of proposed programs and, wherever possible, improve the degree of mutual cooperation in the application of regulatory or other systems. In each instance the Center works to assist on items in conflict, leaving the involved parties with better ways of working together in the future.
